Students and Advisors – Partners!

Academic advising is a collaborative educational process whereby students and their advisors are partners in meeting essential learning outcomes, ensuring student academic success, and outlining the steps for achievement of the students’ personal, academic and career goals. This advisor/student partnership requires participation and involvement of both the advisor and the student as it is built over the student’s entire educational experience at the university.

Shared Responsibility

This relationship between you and your advisor is one of shared responsibility. Though you as a student are ultimately responsible for the choices you make in college, we realize that in order to make informed decisions, students need the mentoring and advice of academic advisors and others in the Purdue University Northwest community. Your advisor is a key resource for academic issues, opportunities and programs.
